Hermann Neuhaus Prize
The Hermann Neuhaus Prize recognizes excellent Post-Docs and Research Group Leaders who are conducting research with an approach to application at a Max Planck Institute. It is awarded by the Max Planck Foundation in memory of the entrepreneur Hermann Neuhaus, who is its most generous benefactor up to now. The prize money of 25,000 euros is earmarked for research funds.
The call for applications addresses individual researchers in the Biology and Medicine Section and the Chemistry, Physics and Technology Section. Candidates can put themselves forward, should however refer to a Scientific Member of the Max Planck Society for a letter of recommendation. The prize money enables the winners to advance their research’s potential for application.
